Amazon Prime Day: More Deals Than Black Friday
Today is Amazon Prime Day
, a new sale event that Amazon is offering Prime Members. It is touting that the site is offering more deals than Black Friday. This is an awesome opportunity to jump start on your Christmas shopping and save a lot of money.
If you are not a prime member, I recommend signing up for a free 30-day trial
so you can take advantage of the deals. Our family has been a prime member for years and love the perks of free shipping, free streaming and the kindle loaning library.
Some of the deals listed include (and yes, these are affiliate links):
Fire HD 7 Kids Edition Tablet – Just $129, Regularly $189
Fire HD 7 – Just $79, Regularly $139
Prime Member Exclusive – Up to 40% Off Food & Beverages
Rubbermaid Plastic Easy Find Lid Food Storage Set, 42-Piece: $14.99 (regularly $24.99)
The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy (The Fellowship of the Ring / The Two Towers / The Return of the King Extended Editions) [Blu-ray]: $27.99 (regularly $119.98)
Bose SoundTrue Headphones On-Ear Style, Black: $79.99 (regularly $149.99)
You’ll definitely want to check out the lightening deals that are going on throughout the day. They are going to go FAST. Early this morning I was shocked how much had already sold out! On Amazon’s Facebook page, it said that new deals will be added every 10 minutes.
Tons of books are dirt cheap right now too. A few favorites:
The Fringe Hours: Making Time for You: $7.85 (regularly $14.99)
God Made Light: $10 (regularly $14.99 – less than 100 copies left, so if you want it, you better get it now!)
Wild in the Hollow: On Chasing Desire and Finding the Broken Way Home: $8.90 (regularly $16.99 – hardcover)
Savor: Living Abundantly Where You Are, As You Are: $9.34 (regularly $16.99- hardcover)

Happy Prime Day!
So I just saw on CNN’s website that there are many unhappy Amazon customers about this crazy sale today – lots of hash tags and Twitter backlash that say #unhappyprimeday and #amazonfail and #gobacktosleep. I have not been on the site other than to glance at the deals – I’d love to hear what others have to say!
